7.62x25 Blowback Progress

Finished my gas op x25 a few weeks back but still haven't taken it to the range. Figured I would get the blowback done as well, and take them both. This is AK-Builder flat, AMD 65 based pistol trunnion, AK74 front trunnion, EOD bolt/carrier and magwell, as well as a bunch of crap laying around the shop. Plus I put an old copy of an early M16 3 prong flash suppressor on it, just because the barrel looked so plain. She's ready to test fire. Cycles beautifully by hand.

AKfiend, as Coils said, I am planning on a G3 rear sight to go along with the front. Pretty much just for looks though, as I will probably be shooting this one more from the hip than anything else.

Thanks Coils. I can't wait to test and report!

Rapid, yeah, I decided to do one each gas op and blowback. See how they handle and feel as compared to each other. I really like them both. As soon as I get the gas op tested and tuned, I plan to SBR it. It's basically an AK version of an MP5. Great close quarters weapon.

Thanks guys!

AKfiend, I missed your question earlier about screws or rivets, sorry. It's a screw build. On my "beater" builds, I like to do them with screws first, until I fine tune all of the "non standard" parts, then if I'm bored, I go back through and rivet it. (Usually a year or so later. LOL.)

No problem Coils. I actually purchased the EOD bolt and magwell from a Gunco member used. It was at one time in a firing weapon, so it should perform well. (fingers crossed) I thought about maybe spec'ing out both the magwell and bolt for future reference for folks. I don't reckon that EOD has any kind of ownership to the parts. I hope to report back after this weekend!
